You are a band management company or a talent agency executive board
and you have to convince Al Gore's Entertainment Committee, for the
Live Earth concert on 8/8/08, that your band or entertainer should be
on the bill to perform. You will have the opportunity to choose any band or performer that you would like, as long as the corresponding material is appropriate for class (even if they songs or jokes are not). Groups will be chosen out of a hat. If you have particular experience with the technology, you may be asked to join other groups. To be eligible for the nomination, you must show ways your artist(s) is helping the environment by conserving and using less energy, using their celebrity to raise awareness of global warming, fossil fuel consumption and alternative energies. You will then create a PowerPoint, iMovie, or radio show that persuades the committee that you are the best choice for the performance and educate them on what your artist(s) is doing to help the environment. You will then present this to the class and you must have a handout or pamphlet that is attractive and lists the main points of your project and your sources. |
